A Pint of Bitter Murder. Featuring: Alison Preston, and John McFetridge

John McFetridge’s latest character-based mystery, Black Rock, is an artful police procedural set in the turbulence of 1970 Montreal, when terrorists threaten the city and a stalker is murdering young woman.

In Blue Vengeance, Alison Preston returns us to Norwood Flats where Danny, an angry teen, plots to avenge the death of his troubled sister with a well-chosen stone and a slingshot.
